The Day is Done - Wednesday
Another day of continuous rain but we are not defeated or disheartened at all. It has been a tough day and all teams are having to dig deep. Please pray for us all to keep Jesus at the centre of all we do and to do it for his glory.
The School numbers went up again today to 137 and the Youth lept from 60 yesterday to 88 today - and they are determined not to turn anyone away.
The Medical move went well and they were seeing patients in Gyula by about 3.30pm, normally first patients are not seen until Thursday.
The Community Team continue to do an amazing job and I have yet to hear how the Bingo went, but I have no doubt it would have been brilliant. They support the other teams in so many ways too. They have been joined by a new team member today (Peter) who did battle with delayed trains to arrive at about 5pm, work commitments preventing him coming out with the rest of the team. He will join Jan doing some pastoral visits and some of these can be difficult; translators play a key role in this part of the mission and. Andrea (from the Ukraine College) is doing a phenomenal job with Jan.
All the translators do such a great job and without them no part of the mission would be possible.
I have just finished a meeting with Andrew as we met Pastor Bela, the Dean for the area,the mayor and a representative from a Christian organisation who support building projects. We discussed the nursery project and how we can support them to pay for the roof construction ... a very long day.
Please continue to pray for the whole team for grace, unity and a desire to serve in whatever way is needed.
Tomorrow is likely to the medical queues bigger as Gyula is a bigger village. It will be interesting to see how many children/youngsters turn up as both the school and youth are near capacity. Please pray that they receive wisdom and strength to tackle these numbers with virtually no access to run around outside.
The second visit to the remote village is planned tomorrow afternoon and it is hoped that this can build on Tuesday's visit.
Okay, time for sleep - it has been a long day.
Yours in Christ
Andrew and Ian

Am following the blog from Devon - am sorry to hear about all the rain but I know God is sufficient in every situation and I pray you are aware of his presence and power. Keep going and know we are all praying for you.
God bless
Love Philip
